Stem cells create humanlike heart valve tissue to model disease and test treatments
Melbourne researchers have created human heart valve tissues from stem cells, providing a powerful new platform to advance treatments for childhood heart diseases.
New miniature microscope allows scientists to watch and control brain cells during natural movement
Researchers at the University of Colorado Anschutz and the University of Colorado Boulder have developed a miniature microscope that allows scientists to observe and activate individual brain cells during natural movement, an advance that could accelerate research into how the br
Immune cells rely on a cholesterol sensor to maintain balance, researchers discover
Every day, billions of cells in our body die and are removed as part of normal tissue maintenance.
Scientists uncover cellular mechanism driving both rare childhood dementia and Alzheimer's disease
Researchers at the University of California San Diego and their colleagues have identified a key cellular pathway that drives brain degeneration in both a rare childhood disorder and the far more common Alzheimer's disease.
Three energy-loss routes may explain Tarantula Nebula's X-ray shortfall
Like a collage made of layered sheets of colored cellophane, a vibrant new image layers observations of a famous star-forming nebula from NASA's space telescopes.
Differences in immune cells predict skin cancer treatment outcomes
In a first-of-its-kind study by King's College London, researchers have linked changes in two major types of immune cells in blood to different survival outcomes for patients with melanoma.
Cells' own abnormal RNA may trigger inflammation during viral infection, challenging 20 years of assumptions
New research led by the Hudson Institute of Medical Research has shown how a cell recognizes that it is infected with a virus to protect itself and surrounding cells or induce inflammation.
Protein secreted by immune cells may help drive brain aging
Brain-resident immune cells that have reached an old-age state called "senescence" secrete a protein that causes dysfunction in other brain cells, according to a study led by investigators at Weill Cornell Medicine.
Thyroid's two hormone-producing cell types develop separately before merging, study finds
The thyroid gland consists of two types of hormone-producing cells that regulate the body's metabolism and calcium balance. In mammals, these cell types merge into a single organ, whereas in other vertebrates, they develop into separate organs. How this fusion occurs has long rem
NASA Telescopes Create Colorful ‘Craft’ From Nearby Nebula
Like a collage made of layered sheets of colored cellophane, a vibrant new image layers observations of a famous star-forming nebula from NASA space telescopes. Destaque: 4 Mi, 4 mi, 5 mi.
Toxoplasma parasite reveals an unusual strategy for surviving crowded environments in infected cells
Toxoplasma gondii, or Toxoplasma, is a parasite that infects hundreds of millions of people around the world.
